This makes it a simple process to share files between different computers, phones or tablets. There is even a dedicated SkyDrive app for your iPhone, which provides a simple way to upload files from your phone, such as pictures, that you can then access from any device that can access SkyDrive. But if you no longer use the SkyDrive app, or if you simply want to remove the app from your iPhone, you can follow our short tutorial below to uninstall SkyDrive from the iPhone.
